Switch Overview
The Switch displays two exclusive choices.
When initialized, the Switch renders the currently selected value. The Switch can be created from an input element of type checkbox. The default styling of the Switch widget for each of the Sass-based Kendo UI for jQuery themes can be modified to match the desired custom layout. For more information and examples, refer to the article on implementing a custom layout for the Switch.
The Switch is part of Kendo UI for jQuery, a
professional grade UI library with 110+ components for building modern and feature-rich applications. To try it out sign up for a free 30-day trial.
Initializing the Switch
To create the Switch, use an HTML <input> element.
<input id="switch" />
To initialize the Switch, use a jQuery selector.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#switch").kendoSwitch();
});
